HONG KONG, December 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Are Hong Kongers happy? AIA Hong Kong, a leading advocate for mental and physical health, has revealed the results of its first ‘Health and Wellbeing Survey’.#“. He interviewed 400 Hong Kong residents and delivered a conclusion that challenges conventional beliefs about the presumed direct correlation between wealth and happiness. The survey found that 51% of respondents Hong Kong say they are happy, and among them, 68% attribute their happiness to strong family ties, compared to those who associate it with wealth (59%). The survey further revealed that 61% of parents expressed greater happiness than other segments, and almost 60% (58%) of parents considered themselves healthy. These findings illustrate the profound impact of strong family relationships on Hong Kong people’s happiness and overall well-being, challenging the dominant view that money is the primary determinant of living a fulfilling life and, ultimately, redefining the concepts of health and happiness in Hong Kong.
Parenthood means better family planning
The survey also revealed how having a family determines household planning. Notably, nearly 40% (37%) of parents demonstrated more comprehensive family planning than those without children (27%). When it came to medical coverage, parents were more prepared, with almost 85% (84%) having purchased medical or critical illness insurance. Additionally, about 40% (39%) of parents would set aside funds specifically for medical expenses to save for a rainy day.
Mr. Alger Fung, Chairman and CEO of AIA Hong Kong and Macausaid: “The survey results shed new light on how strong family relationships are a greater source of happiness for people. Hong Kong people rather than wealth, thereby debunking the preconceived notion that “money is everything”. The city’s low birth rate, which has attracted government attention, may reflect many people’s feelings of pressure or worry about the challenges of starting a family. That said, our findings offer a contrasting view that parent-child bonds bring greater happiness and a more well-planned life. We are witnessing a paradigm shift here. Hong Kong people’s perception of how to live a healthy and joyful life from their well-known “practical” attitude. AIA Hong Kong remains fully committed to being our customers’ lifelong partner and will continue to work with them on family protection planning, supporting them in their pursuit of happiness and fulfillment, and to live “a longer life.” healthy, longer and better.
